As we approach the middle of March, it is time to look at three NBA games on Monday with predictions. Here are the three teams we like.
Memphis Grizzlies @ Dallas Mavericks– 7:30 PM ET
Memphis is second in the West with a record of 40 wins and 26 losses. The Mavericks are eighth in the West at 34 wins and 34 losses.
My Take:
There is no doubt the Grizzlies team is in disarray. They have a tom of injuries, and star player Ja Morant is away from the team after allegedly flashing a gun at a Denver night club recently. I know the Grizzlies won 112-108 over the Mavericks, but since the Denver incident, they have struggled on the road in losses to the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers. Take the Mavericks at +1.5, and the under at 224.5. Dallas is much better at home (22-13) than Memphis on the road (12-21), while the Mavericks have been involved in games under 220 points in their last two games.

Milwaukee leads the East with a record of 48 wins and 19 losses. Sacramento is second in the West with a record of 40 wind and 26 losses.
My Take:
Milwaukee is coming off a 125-116 overtime loss to Golden State on Saturday. Yes, I am aware that the Bucks are among the elite teams in the league, but they are coming off a game where they looked a little vulnerable defensively and now have to play a Kings team which leads the NBA with 121.2 points per game. That’s why you take the Kings at +1.5, and the high over at 244.5. Join Our Championships Competition Members Can View Hub Here

Phoenix Suns @ Golden State Warriors
Phoenix is fourth in the West at 37 wins and 30 losses. Golden State is sixth in the West at 35 wins and 33 losses.
My Take:
Golden State is much better at home (28-7) than on the road (7-26). On Saturday, the Warriors beat the best team in the entire league. With Kevin Durant out with an ankle sprain, go with the Warriors at -4.5, and the under at 239.5, as the Suns will miss Durant’s 29.5 points per game.
